The 2017 Beaune 1er Cru Bressandes is lovely, wafting from the glass with a pretty bouquet of rose petals, dried flowers, warm spices and sweet red berry fruit. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, fleshy and succulent, with satiny—even melting—tannins that elegantly frame its lavish core of fruit. This is a supple, gourmand Beaune that will offer a broad drinking window. This gets my nod as Croix's finest Beaune in 2017.
